Our first evening in Budapest was spent writing a few\npostcards and Cedric decided to cook (from a package) some \u201cSzilv\u00e1s Gomb\u00f3c\u201d: a\ntraditional Hungarian plum dumpling dish – a long lost family recipe story on\nhis side \u2013 which turned out pretty good, although we kind of had to adapt to\nthe cycling pantry constraints. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
From Istanbul, we had tried to figure a route back home by splitting to way into three parts: first Istanbul-Belgrade, then Belgrade-Budapest and finally Budapest-Augsburg (the three parts not being equidistant, but the road after Budapest is very obvious all the way to the end. So, getting closer to Augsburg, we could finally be able to estimate the number of days left on the saddle, and starting to count backwards with the constraint of being back in Augsburg the 18th<\/sup> of December (Cassie\u2019s parents arriving the 19th<\/sup> in Germany), we figured that we could spend three days in Budapest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After days of cycling in the rain, the weather turned to sunny but freezing cold in Budapest \u2013 we are still not sure what is a better weather for cycling versus sightseeing \u2013 and we started by visiting the most remarkable building of Budapest, the parliament building. Just as we imagined it, it is a very impressive construction, and very scenic on the shore of the Danube. We however felt that the visit was deceptive, overpriced and more of a tourist trap than anything else: you mostly see the corridors and stairs, a short glimpse at the parliament room, a long explanation at the very important symbols of the Hungarian monarchy (which is funny since Hungary is a republic and has not had a king for a quite a while now) \u2013 this very much felt like the story of \u201cKing Ottokar’s Scepter\u201d or maybe an attempt to sell monarchy-crap-souvenirs? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
